Anyone here ever bought any decks from these people in Canada?

I haven't heard of these guys myself...but I'm always interested in checking out new  "sources": do they have a website?

No web site - eBay only, out of Canada.  Lists lots of mostly top end items with commensurate pricing.  Large, 100% positive feedback rating (for whatever that's worth).  Seems to specialize in Studer gear. They also list an "independent" Studer technician you can call to look it over (for a fee).  Hope this helps.  Hope you find what you want.

Hey Jay,
I haven't bought a complete deck from them, but I have bought capstan motors and circuit boards from them with fine results. I would buy from them again with no problem.

I have bought parts from them also, and would again in the future. My only caveat: they don't always identify their parts correctly, so make sure it's what you want before you buy it.

I've talked with Edward, the company owner many times. he is very reliable

Edward's competition also in Canada with whom I have dealt is No Better Deals who also restores and refurbishes Studers. He too has an ebay store and always has Studer gear for sale.
